Ever wanted to be a jedi? ever wanted to colonize a planet and make it your own? Ever want wars that stretch across galaxies? Well heres the solution for you.
I am not a mod creater, nor do i use mods that well. What i can do is i can come up with solutions for problems, entertainment, and i can be an overall thinker. Now i was thinking to myself: What if we had star wars...in minecraft? and this is what i came up with for a mod idea. Everyone's favorite: SPACE SHIPS simmilar to the movecraft mod, desighning your own rocket/space ship must have been on everyones mind while playing minecraft atleast once, you wanna get to that block of a moon you wanna be the minecraft han. Now for the ship it must be sealed off, no flying carpets threw space wtf? Again taking from SlamBamActions idea of spacecraft i say it should have the properties of water in space, and the properties of notch's skyrealm which if you go below a certain point you die. Now as for mobs..there doesn't have to be mobs in my opinion this is more of a smp idea, but if you want mobs the obvious space alien would be the choice i beileve. Maybe even combine some of the mods that make different ore thats even rarer than diamond that is used to craft a Power Core for your ship so you can finally leave the earth in ssp. But in reality the game minecraft is 3x the planet earth...well does one really explore the ENTIRE map? how about spliting up the world and making it multiple worlds and randomly generating some colors to it..Example: a planet like mars has a red tint to the grass, and hangers and things could be built etc, etc. Now for smp servers (which if this is challenge is accepted by a modder) I and probably many others would make Servers And GalaticCraft is what i personally would call my server for this. Now imagine playing on a Star Wars themed minecraft server? That in my opinion would be amazing, now onto the idea of simple minecraft exploration of the moon...i'd say forget the moon really and the earth too you could make it so this mod randomly spawns you on a planet, and it randomly generates planets within a certain distance of your "home" planet. For comedical purposes even add a space creeper with a helmet lol.
the only problem with having customizable spaceships is crafting it and also coding in the makings for a personalized space ship idk i like staying on the planet so this idea doesnt appeal to me a whole lot srry :| and then the fact that randomly generating entire planets takes gravity and coding in the gravity would be tough... plus the planets would need to be fairly large its just not that practical srry if I were to make a spaceship it would be one that is docked on the original world

So far i've responded to both posts, anyways atleast you didn't since you wouldn't use it say something like its stupid, etc. So i thankyou for that atleast. By the way i meant like a few planets max 10-12 because it should be decently large just can't be do to minecraft's limits.
Wow. This sounds like this could be an Amazing mod. I hope some modder will see this and implement the features (And maybe others) that you suggested. Good Luck :wink.gif:

Don't try to reason with me; You'll get nowhere fast.

Concept of minecraft gravity, well it can be like land from the water and the ship can be like a submarine mod, so make a submarine mod and you got yourself the space ship for GalaticCraft (not sure if there is a submarine mod)
I'm a 'decent' modder....I looked into something similar, of programming space and planets, but it'd be nearly impossible without completely rewriting the way Minecraft works.

this is pretty much why I thought it impractical im srry i didnt mean to be harsh its a good idea just A) whos going to do that your going to have a tough **** time finding someone and B)and you said space would be like being in water ok but planets are round not flat like your minecraft world so seperate planets are going to need gravity and if you my (personal opinion->) WANT to avoid the problem of a cartooney feel like I did from spore than the planets will need to be fairly large

Again not a modder, not good with mods, So this is fine im done with this mod idea might think of a different possible one. Idk also check out my legend of verolin project if you want to see a movie work in progress for minecraft: Legend of Verolin Also a block planet would have been fine seriously though it could be a flat layer like notch's skyrealm thing that would have been fine.

Ya like I said I dont mean to be harsh Im just a skeptic lol dont be mad it wasnt my intention to troll I just have a hard time wrapping my head around this one

Agreed.

The only way something of this scale could be completed:
A: A team of the best modders from around the forums worked their asses off for several months to completely rewrite the way Minecraft works and then start coding the mod.
B: Mojang spent extra time to write an API that could more easily allow for the changes that would be required for the mod to work.
I know it's often hard to understand WHY your idea might not be possible, but let me put it this way for you:
To create "space", Minecraft's default gravity settings would have to be modified to allow for changes while in space. Modders would also run into conflicts like such:
1) Should "space" be like an empty Skylands with random spheres scattered around?
2) How would the player move about space? If a spaceship was used, what would fuel be? What would happen if you ran out of fuel? How would you land on a "planet"?
3) How would we generate different kinds of planets? Would their be biomes, like on the main planet?
4) How would the player get back to the home planet, or Earth?
And many others.
I absolutely love this idea, and I'm sure it would create quite a storm if it were successfully completed, but in reality this would be near impossible. It's not like modders around the forums are earning money for this stuff, either; many choose to spend their free time to develop.
Kudos to you, zaneakye, for taking to time to post this.

i did understand why it wasn't possible just offering my thoughts for the flat planet thing as he seemed to wonder about certain aspects. And the only thing im mad about is the fact i had to be told why it was impossible when i had a decent understanding.
lol NOW this is what id do instead what if you modded in the game to allow travel to other worlds like you can to the nether? and instead of portals you walk onto a spaceship the screen changes to the loading screen like on the nether but instead of the nether your on another world idk its an idea cause space kinda seems outta the question and even my idea has problems and I think other planets would be cool but that would be alot of modding and work and time and whos going to do that you know what i'm saying?

makes sense, but anyways done with this, gonna maybe think up something i think would be cool for minecraft and suggest it idk.

I meant more a star wars system, Example: Each planet has a ruler/goverment system a bit different each planet colonized.
